YAp@finition filed December 13,1922.; jseriaino.j eoaeam Y To all whom t may concern.'

Be it known that' JULIUsVSoHiriD, a citj izen of the United States, residingatMont.-

gomery, in the county of Qrangerand lState f' of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Compact Carriers, lof which the following is a i'ull, clear, fand exact specification.

My invention relates to powdercompact containers and refers particularly topo'wder compact containers which actas pow@ der compactcarriers for the replacement of such compacts within acompactbox. u

Powder compacts, that is face and similar powders in compact form, have largely, replaced the loose powders because of their ofrcarrying and more Veilicient appl ication,v

, Compacts of this character' `are.ius iially carried Ain so-call'ed compact boxes,l andthe `and subject to injury, and hence, "mustfbe In view ot the pow' carefully protected. dersl application to' the skin, it should beV trom .accumulated dirt and dust. As these compacts therein, it is desirable thatthe mirror tace, should be protected. from'tliev powder. f

Ya new powder puit usualljz "used with a new compact, it is desirable that they should accompany eachother in equal hygienic c ondition.j Y

`The compact carrierofjmy invention possesses all of theser desirable and valuable qualities and presents ai means whereby a powder compact and a. powder puff, suitable for replacementV purposes, are preserved in hygienic unbreakable condition. before use and during use can be readily insertedwithin a powder'box and maintained therein free from accidental displacenienta becomeV exliaiistfC-il.longV vbox is useless, and, asV

' forming are usually employedY 1n compactboxes having a mirror j Vthe flange of the compactY box.

In the accompanyingy drawings, illust-rae ing one form of the.` device of .my invention, similar parts are designated by similar niry nierals. i Y Figure l is a perspective viewk of a coinpaotjbox containing one `form-of my device in closed position.

Figure 2is a top View cfg position, `partly .broken away. Y f

Figure 8 is a perspective view ot the com pact container of igure kQ'with the cover on, F igure 4e is a perspective view of the 'com'- pac-t container of Figure 2 with cover, comey pact andv puff reinoved. v f f Figure 5 is an enlarged cross-section through the line 5 5 of Figure l. ,Y The particular form of coiiipactcarrier ofimy invention suitable for the 11e-'loadingof compact-boxes shown in the accompanyinpgTr drawings comprises an! annular bottom 10 having the upwardly extended annular .flange ll., The flange l1A has an' inset recess 12,v and a plurality of outwardly exposed binding members 13,13, 13for1ned in this Figure l inlopen f case b vthe outward forcing of a portion kof the fiange'll 4itselffj The flange ll hasalso aplurality of slot'openings le, lll. l/l, within which a finger iiailcor other 'device may be inserted for easeV of,y removal of the compact containen'fromv compact box. llie'V lidor cover, of the compact'carrier` coni` prises` the annularf member l5 having# the slightly impressedv annular flange 16, thus an extended portion, or. bead. 1,79 around the edgeoic thefiiicinber l5 cover is Yof Asuch .size and shape that ilangel willv :lit within the flange ll' of', the bottoni` with sutlicient friction rand tightness to prevent accidental dislodgment "of the cover kbut allow of its desiredy renier-'al byA an upwardmovement ofthe bead 17. The com;` pact carrier isof such height kthat the of a. compact .box,"iii order to allow ofthe, removal' ofthe cover AwithoutftlieremovalA otk the compact carrier from the compactbox.` Thecompact carrieris of such rdiameter and' The the f bead i7 will be slightly ahovethe botnm flange ofxsuch lproportions .that itfwill fit simply within a `c`ompact box. the" recessV l2 allowing of the" insertion of the hinge of ythe com pact box therein and the binding members 13,v 13, 13 abutting upon the inner face VVof Figures 3 and 4 show the compact while Figures 2 'and 5 carrerfin placement within a compectjbosucarrier,

show the compact i Y the upwardly extended flange I9, to the latrbinding members 13, 13. I3 withthe inner Vlt) ter of which is hinoed at the .flange 21 of the cover member 22. The compact carrier is maintained in position y.'ithin the compact box by the frictional engagement ot the face of the fiange I9 and` when the compact box cover is in raised position. the coverof the Vcompact carrier can be readily'and'easily remc'ivedy hy an upward movement upon the lli ' placed thereon.

bead l?. thus exposing; the contents for use. A. compact 23 is lixedly attached withinthe compact. carrier and Aa .powder puff 24- is The cover of the compact box vcarries a mirror 25.

It will be seen from the above that my Vcompact carrier, when employed lwith its cover, is of such form and construction that it is adapted for receiving and carrying Aa powder compact and a powder puff Land maintaining them clean from contact with dirt and dust; that it protects the compact from accidental dama-ge g that it can be read-v ily inserted within a powder boxand retained therein; that its cover protects the contents trom dust and the mirror from the powder; and that the cover can be readily removed to obtain access to the compact and the pufi". y

It is also evident that my 'compact carrier may be employed without its cover, vsimply as a means for the ready replacement of compacts within a compact box.

I do not limit myself to the particularsize, shape. number and arrangement of parts as shown and described, as these are ygiven simply as a means of clearly describing my invention.

What I claim is y y l. In compact carrier. in combination, a

I bottom having an upwardly extended flange.

a plurality of outwardly extended binding members carried by the flange. al recess within the flange capable of receiving; the hinge of a hingedy powder box into which the compact carrier is inserted and a plurality of openings within the bottom flange. Y.

2. In a compact carrier. in combination. a bot-tom. having' an upwardly extended fiance, a plurality of outwardly extended binding.' members carried by the flange and a `recess within the Flange capable of receiving the hinge of a hinged powder box into which Jthe compact carrier is inserted'. y
